Ten Common Things You May Have Done That I Haven't:
1. Driven cross country.
2. Been able to get my foot behind my ear—not even in my limber, doing yoga days.
3. Been to Las Vegas. (This may not seem common overseas, but if you live on the West Coast of the US this statement never fails to elicit a shocked, "You've never been to Las Vegas????"
4. Gotten married or had children.
5. Seen the movies Jaws or The Godfather. This usually elicits the same response as never having been to Las Vegas.
6. Been to a convention. (I hope to change that by next year.)
7. Lived in a city other than the one I was born in.
8. Been baptized, sanctified, sealed, certified, communionized, etc., to any formal religion. My born again cousins all tell me I'm going to burn in hell, even though the formalization has nothing to do with my belief system or lack thereof.
9. Played any game involving PacMan, Mario Brothers, Resident Evil, Sims, Tetris, Ultima, Civilization, gushers of spewing blood, movie tie ins, or many, many others. Not necessarily from lack of interest, and not necessarily a complete game virgin, but... "You've never. . .???"
10. Ridden a skateboard. (Given the disasters that involved me rollerskating and bike riding, this is probably a Real Good Thing.)
